Slavery existed in Africa, but it was not the same type of slavery that the Europeans introduced. The European form was called chattel slavery. A chattel slave is a piece of property, with no rights. Slavery within Africa was different. A slave might be enslaved in order to pay off a debt or pay for a crime. Slaves in Africa lost the protection of their family and their place in society through enslavement. But eventually they or their children might become part of their master’s family and become free. This was unlike chattel slavery, in which enslaved Africans were slaves for life, as were their children and grandchildren.

Vaselesa [24]

1. The people that lived in the cabin that John B. King Jr. visited were his ancestors, the enslaved Kings.

2. King says that his wife and two daughters were <u>moved to tears</u> when they discovered the massive information about their ancestors.

3. Some of the incredible members of the King family included Lt. Co. Haldane King, who was a Tuskegee Airman (combat pilot).

4. Amanda says that the King family wants nothing from her family but the recognition that their ancestors were connected by slavery.

5. When Amanda uses the term 'slave' to describe the King family, the King family teaches her to say "enslaved people."

<h3>What is the difference between 'slave' and "enslaved people"?</h3>

A slave may refer to a person who lived as a servant of another.

But enslaved people refer to the systematic enforcement of slavery against the people's will.

Thus, by using "enslaved people" instead of "slave," there is the admission of enforced slavery as a real event that happened to some African Americans.
